Medical advances allow mom to donate kidney
DEAR ABBY: Twenty years ago —at the age mal lives as a result of this giant leap forward.
of 3 my son was diagnosed with
kidney disease. His illness worsened, I
his kidneys failed, he endured dialy
sis. Then he received a kidney trans
plant the miracle of life.
My son’s first transplant was at
age 6, and it gave him three great
years. His second transplant was at 9.
Both donors were deceased. The sec
ond kidney took him all the way
through high school. He started dialy-
sis again when he entered college, and the wait
began for another kidney.
No one in our family could donate because
we all had the wrong blood type. Then, one
day, science and research came through for us
again. A technique was perfected that allows a
person to donate an organ of a different blood
type from the recipient. My son was one of the
first to benefit from the technique. We were
able to use my wife’s kidney, a near-perfect
match except for her blood type. It worked!
That was three years ago. My son is healthi
er than he has been in 20 years and has just
graduated from college.
How can we ever thank the two families
who gave my son the gift of life that allowed
him to survive long enough for my wife's kid
ney to be used? We will celebrate my son's life
with thousands of other transplant recipients at
the National Kidney Foundation U.S.
Transplant Games this summer. Together we
will pay tribute to the doctors and donors who
made this happen as we commemorate the
50th anniversary of transplantation, a therapy
that has saved more than 100,000 lives.

KIDNEY FOUNDATION

kidney disease are now enjoying healthy, nor-

spring from long-forgotten
ideas and associations. By
February, a legal or business

a difficulty into a huge asset.
Think big this summer, and
new homes and vacations
end up paying for them
selves. In love, a Taurus real
izes what a prize you are.
You win accolades and pro
motions by August. Your
lucky numbers are: 4,7. 18.
20 and 38.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) There are many reasons
you’re the one who has to
bring people together You've
got the respect of your peers,
for one. It's hard to relate to
certain neighbors. They fear
the unknown, so make your
self known to them.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) Your needs are evolving.
You may even give up on
something you've been chas
ing for a while now. There is
magic in your surrender
something wonders ul comes

Jeanne Phillips
DEAR ABBY: 1 have a happy 10-year mar
riage. Recently my husband. "Ben,” found a
snapshot of me taken when 1 was about 15. At
the time, I was trying to look sexy: tight jeans,
unbuttoned shirt, come-hither look but now
it’s just embarrassing. I laughed with him at
the silly photo and forgot about it.
This week, Ben brought home a "surprise”
—a life-sized painting of me based on that old
photo. Now he wants to hang it in our home. I
told him I didn't find it flattering and would be
uncomfortable having that slutty painting of
me displayed anywhere. He said I'm too sensi
tive. and no one will know it’s me. (What an
. insult!)
Then Ben played his trump card: He bought
the painting for himself, not for me, and thus
it’s his decision whether (and where) he choos
es to hang it in his house.
I am mortified. I can’t imagine looking my
■ guests in the eye after they see that painting.
> Am I overreacting?
BLUSHING IN THE MIDWEST
DEAR BLUSHING: I think so. Regardless of
how much you think you have changed, that
, painting reflects how your husband perceives
I you. To him. you are "hot,” and that’s a com
i pliment. Perhaps you can negotiate where the
painting will be hung.
Under the stars f gaze
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
A bit of obsessive/compulsive
behavior is not necessarily a
bad thing. Al) talented people
have a touch of it. and it's
wonderful that you can lose
yourself in a task! One real
ization is all that stands
between you and your goal.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Sometimes when groups get
together, the whole is definite
ly not greater than the sum of
its parts. Figure out what's
wrong, and change it. The
adjustments you initiate are
brilliant. People listen to you
because you listen to them.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The
duty ahead is daunting or even
impossible. You'll have to
access a deeper power. A
Pisces can help. You're tempt
ed to spoil the kids or your
sweetheart tonight, but stop to
consider the standard you’ll
be setting first.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You get a sudden burst of
inspiration this morning. Be
playful, and you've got a
sweetheart’s full attention. A
financial review is lucky
it's time to figure out exactly
w here you stand. If things are
not working, make a different
choice!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-OcL 23).
Use your mental agility to get
what you want out of life.
There is no outside force that
will provide what you haven't
made room for in your own
head. Attitudinal patterns will
slowly shift, allowing you to
accomplish more.
Readers, April is National Donate
a Life Month, a time for everyone
to consider organ donation and to
discuss their wishes with their
families. For more information, or
a free donor card, contact the
National Kidney Foundation at
Box DA, 30 E. 33rd St., New York,
NY 10016. or call (800) 622-9010.
The Web site is www.kidney.org.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Listen to your heart's
song. It chimes in w ith the
psychic energy surrounding
you to orchestrate an unusual
chain of events. Your life
takes twists and turns that
seem more like fiction than
truth! An Aquarius gives you
a lead.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). For those who
aren't feeling their physical
best: Talk to your body to
find out what you are lacking
or what you've got too much
of. You get top-notch treat
ment when you enter an
arena of students or fans.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) Time management is key
to pleasing friends, family
and. most importantly, your
self. If you're not happy with
the path a relationship is tak
ing. a radical move this after
noon will be like pushing
“reset.” Do business via
phone.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Surprise developments in
love are featured. Be on time
for all occasions, or you miss
out on the best stuff. A
Cancer has financial tips that
pay. Discuss and debate with
family it builds bonds.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20) Invitations are worth the
taking. Being image con
scious helps you feel great
around new people, but your
real friends couldn’t care less.
Hang out with people who
like you for you. Stop relying
on superficial habits.
